Answer:

I would prefer that the standard deviation of the lifespans for the light bulbs be 5 hours.

Explanation:

Standard Deviation is the square root of the sum of square of the distance of an observation from the mean. It is used to check the dispersion (scatter) in data.

Further, If Standard Deviation is 50 hours then the life of the bulb can be like 950 hours or 1050 hours. And if Standard Deviation is 5 hours then the life of the bulb can be like 995 hours or 1005 hours.

So there is a huge variation in the life of bulb if Standard Deviation is 50 hours.

Thus, I would prefer that the standard deviation of the lifespans for the light bulbs be 5 hours.

The training method that emphasizes the immersion approach to cross-cultural training is role-playing.

This is a very effective method in continual education training use by the Department of Humans Resources of outside consultants. The role.playing method works because participants learn through acting different roles so they can understand the perspectives of different areas of the company or different ways of thinking if there are people of distinct backgrounds, cultures, and customs. Participants are asked to assume a role and perform a task in a specific situation to know what they would do or how they would react at that moment.
